We were forced into a position where we needed to sell our property in a bad market and facing…read morepotential foreclosure - hardly ideal circumstances. We had so many unknown variables and time constraints that put us in an extremely stressful situation. We connected with Sarah through an extremely reputable realtor in the area who didn't have room in her schedule at the time to accommodate our needs. Sarah far and away exceeded our expectations. The property is unique - on the outskirts of Nevada City on 27 acres with a main house, guest house, two ADUs, a cottage, a yurt, a pool and hot tub, and many other features that I won't go into detail about here. We had a list of more than 100 tasks (no exaggeration) that ideally would have been done (repairs, improvements, maintenance, etc.) to get the property into prime selling condition, with minimal resources and time to accomplish only a fraction of them. Sarah took the time to listen to and look at everything that needed attention, helping us view the property through the lens of prospective buyers and prioritize our efforts accordingly. In addition to her guidance in getting the property ready to sell, Sarah is superb at marketing. Her photographer is excellent, and she posted the maximum number of photos allowed in the listings, ensuring buyers would have a comprehensive view of all of the features of the property. In addition to the photos, she created an extremely well-made video showcasing the highlights and uniqueness of the property, as well as nearby locales and hangouts that would be attractive to potential buyers. Sarah also featured the property on numerous social media sites and created a dedicated website for it which included many features that could not be shown on traditional marketing platforms. She has really mastered the "new school" strategies to combine with the more conventional techniques. As mentioned previously we were behind on our mortgage and facing potential foreclosure - a very stressful situation which could have had a drastic impact on the sales price had the property actually gone into foreclosure. Sarah willingly and skillfully maintained contact with the lender to keep them informed of where we were in the selling process throughout, forestalling proceedings for as long as necessary for the property to get sold. The outcome likely could have been quite different had she not been involved. Perhaps most importantly, Sarah absolutely did everything in her power to maximize the sales price of the property. Every realtor is naturally going to say that the most important thing to them is to get the seller as much as they can out of the sale, when in reality a small reduction in sales price doesn't affect their commission much. Sarah really believes that the extra work she puts in to maximize sales price is worth it to ensure the satisfaction of her clients, even if her bottom line is only minimally improved. This was manifested through her marketing efforts, her communication with the lender, her time working with us in prioritizing our efforts, and in countless other ways. Sarah walked us through every step of the selling process with expertise, compassion, excellent communication, and an assurance that our situation would resolve with a favorable outcome - which it most certainly did. We are so extremely grateful to Sarah and cannot recommend her highly enough.

Sarah also guided us through the closing stages of the sale with a sure and caring hand. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Working with Aly is like having a friend in the real estate business!…read more Aly guided me through the process of buying my first home. She took the time to show me as many houses as I needed to be sure the one I chose was the right one for me. She educated me about the process and supported me every step of the way. No house is perfect so, as a buyer, there are a lot of decisions and negotiations along the way. As a first time home buyer I needed a trusted and experienced advisor, Aly was there for me every time. I now own my first home, and it has changed my life! Even months after the close of the sale Aly has been available to answer my one million new home owner questions. Aly is a great agent and what sets her apart is that she truly cares about people, as evidenced by the fact that she goes out of her way to help me, even long after the commission has been paid.

She took more than a few weekends to patiently show my wife and I several different homes in a variety of areas, taking the time to answer our plentiful questions. Once we (finally) decided to make an offer, she guided us through the experience with knowledge and ease; assisted us with obtaining our loan and insurances, and made sure that we understood every step of the process. We've been settled into our home for over 8 months, and we still reach out to Aly with any questions we may have , or recommendations we may need. We highly recommend Aly!

My home in Nevada City sold last month, and I couldn't have done it without Rebecca. After…read moreinterviewing a handful of realtors in the area, Rebecca clearly emerged as the most experienced, knowledgeable and personable. I decided to work with Rebecca to sell my home because of her decades of experience, professional demeanor and proven sales ability. I had never experienced the process of selling a home before, and Rebecca was instrumental in guiding me from day 1. Having moved outside of Nevada City while the house was up for sale, I was unable to be there to maintain the garden and complete fixit projects. Rebecca went above and beyond to sell my home- she made sure that everything was running smoothly, helped me find local contractors for repairs and kept the house looking beautiful and ready to show in my absence. She saved me hours of time driving back and forth, and enabled me to settle into my new home without worrying about the many details of the property I was selling. The value of Rebecca's time and expertise is immeasurable: she was able to sell my property in a short time with challenging market conditions. Additionally, she was able to find a buyer who agreed upon the price I was seeking. I couldn't be more pleased with the incredible work that Rebecca put in to accomplish this feat. Rebecca showed up on time, did what she said she was going to do, and gave me frequent updates and insights as to how I could improve the property to sell it faster. Peace of mind is priceless, and so is the job Rebecca did in helping me accomplish my goals. I like Rebecca personally and professionally, and would highly recommend her to anyone selling their home. Whether this is your first experience selling a property, or you're a seasoned real estate pro, Rebecca is the very best. When I buy or sell a property in the future, I am certainly going to call Rebecca again- I wouldn't want to work with anyone else!

Theresa Prock - you couldn't ask for a better real estate agent. We met Theresa about 3 years ago,…read morewhen my husband and I were thinking of retiring to the Grass Valley area. Our plans were put on hold, and 3 years later we contacted Theresa and she showed us the same enthusiasm now as she did back then. Theresa has a great personality, she is honest and gives you her opinion on the property/area. Which is great since we didn't know too much about the area. Once we found our home, she continued to be there for us, from my panic questions and just overall questions, she always reassured us. Working with Theresa is like talking to a long lost friend. She is great all the way around.

We had the pleasure of working with Teresa this year in both selling and buying our new home (which…read morewe close escrow on tomorrow!), and would like to take this opportunity to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell. Teresa had her work cut out for her with us... we had many requirements for our new home, and that combined with a low market inventory presented quite a challenge! Teresa went above and beyond to help us in our hunt, showing us many houses with great patience and flexibility. She worked around our schedule (busy work schedule and our toddler's nap schedule!) and was always prompt in returning phone calls, emails, and getting any info we needed. Pleased as we already were, Teresa's true colors really shined when the first home we were in escrow on ended up having some big issues upon inspection. She insisted we have further inspections, and in light of our findings she encouraged us to back out of the escrow, even though that meant forfeiting her own big paycheck that was right around the corner. It meant so much that she looked out for us in that way, and she has again and again proven to truly have our best interests at heart. With that said, we highly recommend Teresa to anyone looking for a competent, savvy, professional to assist in their real estate needs.
